this country need grow up in ignorance, and

his opening performance in Chicago this
season was ever witnessed in an
American theater. When he made
his appearance as Richelieu there
was a tremendous burst OF applause
that swept over the crowded auditorium
OF the Chicago opera-housc, before which
the actor was compelled TO bow time and
again. The action OF the play was delayed
some moments, and during the evening
he was called before the curtain no less
than thirteen times. The peculiar nature
OF Mr.. Kcenc's illness, his sudden retire
mcnt, and the plucky fight he made for
life, all served 10 develop strong element
OF public sympathy, which has manifested
itself everywhere since we opened. A
delegation of business men escorted him
in special train from Omaha to Kansas
City, and over 400 prominent citizens ten
derod him a complimentary reception dur
ing his visit to the latter city. Ills recep-
ton everywhere has taken the form OF an
ovation, and he IL much touched by these
sincere evidences Of popularity"
He will give four performances here next
week, and his friends and admirers in
Memphis will bo glad TO know that he
never has shown such excellent spirits
socially, or displayed a better form in his
famous charactcriZaliOns.
